obama addressed the major debates in washington right now and the impact on americans. listen. >> between a reckless shutdown by congressional republicans in an effort to repeal the affordable care act, and admittedly poor execution on my administration's part in implementing the latest stage of the new law, nobody has acquitted themselves these past few months. so it is not surprising that the american people's frustrations with washington are at an all-time high. jon: let's talk about with charlie hirt. he is a columnist for "the washington times." this is twice now in two days that the president, or his spokespeople have mentioned the government shutdown. they really want folks to remember that. i guess because it what, deflects from the attention that is being paid to the so-called launch of obamacare? >> they would love to get completely back to the government shut down and talk about that. jon, i don't think you can overstate how difficult this whole thing is going to be for democrats in next year's election. i can not think of another piece of legislation that wa

as it relates to obama care. just when you thought the website was up and running and things were looking good for obama care, we get a new bombshell report yesterday that it turns out that one in ten applications that are being filed through the website, are not going through. in fact, if you thought you signed four obama care, you might not find out you didn't sign up until after the deadline passes when you think you're covered? >> one in ten sounds bad but it's an improvement. check out the full screen we have here just last month and during october when it was rolled out, one in four had these errors. we're talking about the 834 forms that go from healthcare.gov and they get fired over to the insurance companies and there's a problem with these transmissions where sometimes the information is jarbled and all mucked up. sometimes there are duplicate applications filed and sometimes they're not there at all. people are discovering hey, i signed up, i waited in line, i was on the website going through this mess
